snowtracdave Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'm sure I've asked this question before but I'm blowed if I can find the answer ! Can anyone advise on the shade of yellow in which airfield ground support vehicles would have been finished . At some point in the future I hope to get the Snow Trac back to it's in service colour . Thanks for any info . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowtracdave Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Thank you Clive , I suspected you might have the answer . Do you know if that equates to RAL 1007 which I think is also (a)Golden Yellow ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Dave I really don't know. But I would be very wary of assuming an equivalence based just on name. For some years I was mystified why some vehicle alternators were sometimes painted the wrong colour blue on the inside. It was a rather bright blue not BSC Sky Blue that most of the alternator was painted then I looked at RAL Sky Blue & realised that someone probably had not read the spec properly & used the colour based on RAL rather than BSC381C. (In case anyone says the Sky Blue indicates it was reconditioned in the case of Generators No.10 when reconditioned they were to be painted black) Anyway that's another story :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
